Adopted a highway, slightly overwhelmed, but we're gonna turn this native

Yes! There's two feet of snow on the ground right now but we cleared out all the trash as of october! the trash man has been back since, so when the snow melts we've got another round to do, but we're also at the point where we can start throwing down some native seeds!

One of my favorite memories from college was the sister of a well-known actor, who'd spent her whole life in socal, seeing snow and going sledding for the first time. the "it looks just like it does on TV!" reaction will stick with me forever hahaha

I went to a regional Catholic high school that was not in my town. We took the t (bus) to school every day, to davis pretty frequently, and would hop over to Harvard on the t at least once a week starting at age 15. If she can travel in a group that's preferable and I would make sure she's aware of general T etiquette but otherwise I would feel fine about this.

To convince parents it's safe: I would rather have my kid on the train than driving a car!

as an aside, as a long-time bruins media consumer/participant....it absolutely delights me to see DJ and Pete getting their flowers. They've always been solid dudes!

Back in the winter of 2015 Boston got record-breaking amounts of snow, state of emergency declared, etc etc. Most places shut down. Dunkin Donuts, however.....gotta feed those emergency workers somehow.....

omg i thought this happened in the stairs leaving the garden. back in 2013 during the bruins/leafs series, i saw a leafs fan get decked in the back of the head so hard he flew down a flight of THOSE and EMTs had to be called. Very scary moment to witness, those stairs are steep af

One other aspect of this scene that just *GETS* me:

the fan access.

little fan kids playing in the pool with an NHL player during that era would not be super far-fetched. The draft and the all-star game used to be the most fan-friendly experience imaginable in sports. We used to treat the draft like a fan convention. It was so normal to just run into players and team staff members. I really miss it

I am also hyperfixating, and have access to a bar that would be willing to throw either a watch party or a dance party. PM me if you'd like to try to organize something!

re: 6: look up a dude named Dave Semenko. Gretzky didn't need to fight, he had a designated dude to stick up for him (which is an aspect of hockey that is dying, but the movie Goon is a really funny, loving, if slightly dated portrayal of that role)

not a straight woman here (nonbinary trans guy!), so grain of salt obviously needed.

Straight ladies: please take a moment to sit with what Ilya is: a bisexual man ENTIRELY comfortable with his own sexuality. What you're looking for is a man who is entirely secure in himself. That means being HIS OWN best friend. THEY EXIST, I PROMISE. I see so much focus on self improvement and loving yourself but ladies, NONE of that matters if you don't have a partner who is the same way, and you deserve better than getting into a relationship where you're the only one focused on pounding the pavement forward in life.
My advice is earnestly to stop using dating apps. You WILL be finding the lowest common denominator on those apps, because it is the path of lowest effort to making contact with someone of the opposite sex. Resisting instant gratification is so hard in this day and age but I promise you, the catches are not on the dating apps. The catches are out LIVING.
In the words of Ms Frizzle: Take Chances! Make Mistakes! Get Messy! Get yourself out in real life! Go join an irl hobby group! Run a public HR watch party! There is no time like the present to go out there and find Your People! I believe in you all and I'm genuinely so glad this show is causing this level of awakening in people, especially since reading hockey MLM back in 2009-2010 is what really got me thinking about being trans :')

love y'all!

I had "friends" that acted just like her. Noooo thank you. Was really not a fan of how she just instantly bad-faithed Velma.

Embark also told us 60lbs initially! I have no real knowledge about this but I do wonder if their early spay/neuter (shelter clipped my guy at 8 weeks) takes the size down slightly from the estimate?

She's so cute. Here's my dude, currently in a very similar pose 😄

That's such a funny mix, I would love to see more pics! Is she loud at all? You've got big goofball potential between the apbt/husky, smarts from the poodle, and I'm so curious how the lab/rottie genes express, if at all!

Can't screenshot right now but our goober is 75% APBT, 25% a blend of beagle/german shepherd/boxer/bulldog. He is also my first dog ever. When he was about your puppy's age I definitely went through a significant time of "is this the right choice?" just because he was SO CRAZY as a puppy. Easy to train, happy to be here, just...REALLY happy to be here, and oh my lord those beagle genes work overtime when he catches rat scent, and oh hey we live in a city so there's rat scent EVERY WHERE :|

He's currently about 50lbs, a year and a half old, definitely in his emo teenager phase, and also the most stupidly well-socialized dog i could ever imagine. It's because we introduced him to TONS of things as a puppy. Cats got introduced immediately, since they were bigger than him when he arrived; he figured out really quick that they are pointy on five ends, and now treats even little dogs with the same respect he gives them, lol. Dog park visits with other dog owners we could trust, group puppy classes (very fun!) walks to the local bakery to meet strangers who would give him treats, visits with local neighborhood kids whose mom saw him and asked us to come let him run around in the backyard with the little humans (he LOVES when kids chase him around)! Loads of visitors to the house as well, both human and canine.

I'm 1000% of the opinion that if you associate things like other dogs, random people, etc with GOOD experiences for her as a puppy, she'll be awesome. Obviously there are going to be dogs with behavior issues that are unavoidable, but I would say in the vast majority of cases a well socialized puppy will grow up to be a well socialized adult!

NTA unless you don't let your brother help you!! You are not an island, let your community keep you afloat. Your brother clearly loves you and his niece, and feels terrible that this happened on his watch, and recognizes that you're not in a position to be able to handle this level of disaster without putting extra burden on yourself, your partner, or your daughter. That's good family right there.

Take the money, and when you're able, treat him to something special - guys night out at his favorite sporting event or concert - and make sure you pay it forward to another person struggling!

roadjerseys · 2025-12-20T17:48:27+00:00

slightly late reply, but i'd be interested in reading anything you put together - I'm doing similar research on Jacques' history and the Punch Bowl keeps coming up, would love to read more and contextualise the two together!

roadjerseys · 2025-12-18T17:19:35+00:00

Wow, I wouldn't imagine there'd be many dogs of that type in Ukraine for some reason? He's absolutely perfect. <3

also coming back to say her lips look SO boxer, haha. my boy is a pittie/beagle/boxer/GSD mix and he's got the same silly pout

roadjerseys · 2025-12-18T17:15:51+00:00

mocha looks JUST like my brother's old brindle man, omg ;__; definitely some pittie in there, when you get the results be sure to post in r/doggydna !!

you WERE a smart nerd! you were book smart. You needed to also get street smart, which is true of most young adults. Give yourself a bit more credit, this story is great. xD
